Young people wear tom shoes everywhere
The espadrille's reinvention as leisure shoes has encouraged leading
shoe designers to jump on the bandwagon. TOMS has established itself as
something of an espadrille pioneer - from the classic plain black
slip-on and French-style blue and white stripes to a glittered-up
statement look.
Ethics may not be our immediate concern when buying shoes - after all, it's easy to fall in love with a pair and make a purchase on a whim - but what if you could 'make a difference' when choosing your shoes?
Thanks to Womens Toms Striped Shoes , you can. The brand, which was established in 2006, gives a pair of shoes to a child in need every time a pair is purchased.
It's an issue close to TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie's heart. During his travels in Argentina in 2006, he noticed that many children had no shoes to protect their feet - putting them at risk of contracting soil-transmitted diseases.
It's not just about disease, though. If footwear is a compulsory part of their school uniform, it means they can't get an education.
Investing in a new pair of espadrilles is no longer something only beneficial for your feet - now, you could help a child to reach their potential.
